An ever-expanding vocabulary

Amelia surprises us, from time to time, with her growing vocabulary. The day after I took her to Supercuts she located a brush, began to brush mommy's hair and said, "Haircut."

This morning Amelia asked daddy if she could watch, "Heph movie" (the Hephalump movie). But I think the best phrase came night while we were wandering around Hobby Lobby. After Amelia and I had cut in front of another shopper in the aisles (toddlers do this fairly often) I was careful to say, "Excuse us." A few moments later Amelia walked in front of another shopping cart, looked at the woman there, and said, "Scuse us." The shopper was surprised and asked, "Did she just say, 'excuse us?'" I grinned and said, "Yeah, she must have just picked that up."

Amelia is a good and polite little girl, though her propensity to repeat words and phrases she hears serves as a reminder to us all to watch the swearing ;).
